as the South Penn enterprise. That date marks
the expiration of the time in which answers to
the bill of complaint of the Pennsylvania Rail
road Company against the stockholders Of the

not been filed yet, but will come to light
in proper time and will show amount of life

In honoring these men they would have honored
themselves.

Bust ness Good with Chicago Roads.
General freight agents of Chicago roads report
business as good in all directions. but they ad-
NIT that the freahts, especially over the North
western lines. are not carried at rs good paying
rates as is the business over the Indianapolis
roads. both east and west-bound. While q con-
siderable portion of their traffic is supposed TO
bring them very fair revenue it is equally
Certain that large proportion of the grain and
-four traffic has been done for the sake of show.
The bulk of the corn brought to Chicago since
Sept. i was hauled st a low rate, because the
long distance from market would not permit
shipments at regular rates, and the railroads, ap-
preciatpg that, although they would derive very
little profit from reducing charges to figures that
would allow the far mere to sell their corn, the
movement was wise. as the farmers prosperity
would IN the end be their gain. The movement
of VIII eat from the Northwest at a rate that all
admit is non-compepsating was caused by COM
petition for bust ness by the three W lines from
Chicago to Mimi eapolis. They had little or
nothing to sacrifc in the shape of local patron
age; hence they made fight for through
freight, not IN Anticipation of direct profits from
the business, but for the purpose of populariz
ing their lines.

AFFAIRS OF THE RAILWAYS.
A Novel Invention.

H. H. Young. q member of the fire depart
ment of Minneapolis. has invented plan for
heating coaches and preventing lights setting
fire to coaches in of accident, which is at
tracing good deal of attention or the roads of
the Northwest Two of the roads are expert
menting with bis device. and are greatly pleased,
it is stated by the Pioneer Press, with the sue
cess Of the tests. The great feature OF the in
vention is putting out the fire, blowing out the
lights in the and applying the air brakes all
by movement, and that occupying but the
fraction of a second. The device begins with
an ordinary looking sbeet-iron stove of cylin-
drical form, some four and a half feet high and
about fourteen inches in diameter. The upper
part of the stove is heavy reservoir filed with
water Another reservoir just over the stove
and at the of the car is also filed with
water. A small iron tube passes from this
end of the to the floor ana thence
up under the heater. Three burners at
tached. The material for fuel can be any
hydro car bon compound The gas is turned On
and lighted and ut once the water begins to heat,
rises of course and makes way for the colder
water pressing MP through the circuit In a
short time the whole circuit is heated and the
pipes begin to give off heat In tho rear of the
heater is fve-inch air cyiinder Between this
cylinder and the heater is spherical ball, weigh
ingeight pounds and held up some eight or nine
inches from the Fl or by q small bolt which fits
into a small hole in the ball A strong steel
lever spring attached to valve in the full tube
presses down this ball and holds it In an up
right position. Another vertical spring attach
ed to the air cylinder is also regulated by this
ball. Then connected with the air cylinder and
CO ntrolled by valves is an air tube, which leads
alon under the roof of the car. A branch goes
out to each lamp and ends just the chin
pey. The air brakes of the whole train are also
connected with this air cylinder

no ADVERTISEMENT, it is not half so
effectual as substantial advertise
met i'll newspaper. The people
are beginning to regard the dodger
as a cheap venture by merchants,
who lack confidence in their own
business. AS they all tell the same
story, they are stole chestnuts, and
are laid aside without particular
notice. But it is different with a
healthy advertisement planted deep
in alive newspaper. 1t shows that
the merchant has confidence in his
business. He knows he has bar
gains and he wants the people to
know, and they will surely come

methods inspire the people with
the thought that he is wide awake,

an old twenty-five per-cent-profit-

There seems to be be strong,
healthy sentiment prevailing in the
State against our present obnoxious
road laws, both general and local.
Some counties have had road laws
made, applicable to no other coun-
ties, and intended to be of SUPERB
or nature, but there are few of them
of any worth. Why not repeal the
whole business, and put into effect
new law, based on common sense,
common justice andthe present ad-
vanced state of affairs2 III our law
makers would give us a satisfactory
road law in lieu of the present ones,
they would, in a measure, recon.
pense the taxpayers foE the dead
time they put in so conspicously.-
